Chapter 38: A Short Parting is Better Than a Honeymoon

"Thud" Sheng Shushu fell to the ground, her body and backpack landing together.

Xiao Qingzhou was a little stunned, as he hadn't pushed hard.

However, as a man, pushing someone over was certainly not gentlemanly. He quickly helped her up, "Are you okay?"

Did she hurt her arm?

Was there a cramp in her leg?

He checked one by one.

It seemed that there were no problems, but something about her didn't seem quite right.

Sheng Shushu regained her senses and stood up on her own; her expression also became calm again, "I'm fine, I... forgot to knock."

Xiao Qingzhou didn't find her response irrelevant either, "Let's go, grandfather is waiting."

He casually picked up a pair of new slippers for Sheng Shushu from Mrs. Xiao.

"Sheng Shushu, you've come too. I was saying I hadn't seen you this week. Professor Xiao mentioned you had a heavy academic load."
